WAS THIS THE KIDDIES CAT?

I was absolutely sickened earlier today, when I read of the ordeal of a lion cub. Kept chained to a pole in the garage of a local villa, unable to even reach its water, this poor animal has spent her early life in absolute pain & misery.

"Wildlife officials acting on a tip from a neighbour rescued the cub from the garage of a villa in Khalidiya. The animal’s canine teeth had been crudely sawn off or ground down, exposing nerve endings and leaving it in great pain. Its front claws had also been removed."

"The cub’s captors amateurishly removed all four of its canine teeth." (It is suspected) this was done either with a saw, or by grinding the teeth all the way down to the bone, leaving the nerves exposed. The animal could not have been able to eat properly afterwards.

The full story can be found HERE

When (or should that be IF) this sad bastard is finally prosecuted, the only wrath he'll feel is a pitiful dent in his wallet of a maximum Dh50,000 ($13,615) fine & 6mths in the slammer. I somehow doubt very much that he'll do the time.

I'd like to have ten minutes with the cub's captor, just so's I can rip his fingernails out & give him the taste of an angle grinder in his mouth, to see how he'd get on with all the nerves in his teeth exposed.

I blame him FULLY for the condition of the poor cub..............FULLY, because he's the sick fucker who placed the order with some underground scum to illegally import the animal in the first place. Sure, the smugglers are to blame, as are those who capture such animals in the first place, but HE made the choice & by gawd, I really, really hope he & everyone living in the same villa suffer for their actions.

Awwww diddums, did the cute little pussy cat get too big for the kiddies to play with?

Khalidiya is an up-market suburb in the city of Abu Dhabi
